High content imaging has become the most commonly used readout for 3D tissue and disease models in microphysiological systems. However, the temporal resolution of automated high content imagers is limited, rendering them inadequate for certain applications. We employed the OrganoPlate®, a standardized and high-throughput capable organ-on-chip platform, in conjunction with the Tecan Spark® Cyto multimode plate reader in an assay to investigate the toxic effect of snake venom on endothelial tubules grown in the chip. Several readouts were utilized to gain insights on the action of the venom of six different snake species.
In this webinar, you will:
- Discover the high throughput of the OrganoPlate platform and its compatibility with multimode plate readers.
- Learn how we utilized the Spark Cyto multimode reader to combine excellent temporal resolution with intermittent highresolution imaging for improved morphological insights.
- Explore technical aspects of extracting data from the OrganoPlate using a multimode reader and how it can enhance your toxicity related research.
